Trip to Ridgecrest California 2013

         

 My mom, Lola and I stayed at my aunt Charisse's house and had such a great time this is Lola having Charisse put my mom's shoes on her so she can walk around in them.

 We went to the children's festival when we were there it was fun.  Lola played with home made play dough and ran around like a crazy person and had Karen get her a balloon.

The train! so much fun we all rode the train around and Carson was the VIP of course and was able to tun all the switches. We all had a blast and played with all the trains after the ride.

We also did some shopping for Ari's birthday.  As you can see she loves being independent and doing it herself.

Playing at Ari's party with Grant.  We had so much fun while we were there and it was so nice to see and catch up with so many people.

                                     

Easter fun 2013

The Saturday before Easter we head over to my parents neighborhood where they have a huge Easter egg hunt and it is SO fun!

 Danny and Lola heading to the starting line

Getting everyone corralled together is the hardest part

Lola is still in the first group to go and she was having a blast 

we actually had to put them all out again so she could pick up "more eggs" she was going crazy

This is her showing off her loot

AND big treat the cousins came up from St George for Easter it was so much fun!  Lola adores her cousins Carson and Cohen.

This is after the hunt they all played in Danny's new truck it was a blast.

Once they got out of the truck they all held hands on their own accord and the boys escorted Lola around the yard.

Easter morning Lola got to do another Easter egg hunt and because she knew what was in the eggs she wanted to open each one as she picked it up.  "Canna" is what she says for candy and it really is the cutest thing but no she didn't have any "canna" until after breakfast.

She is so funny when she gets excited her feet go crazy and she dance walks.

This is her broom that she got from the Easter bunny so that she can help me instead of just wanting to have my broom.

Grandma and Grandpa Bowers also got her a new princess trike, Aladdin and Jasmine for her little people castle, and Sofia the first on DVD she was thrilled about it. Thanks to everyone for the awesome weekend!

Visiting Great Grandma and Grandpa in Boise

As soon as we said our hellos Lola was outside feeding Susanne the friendly pigmy goat that lives behind my grandparents house we did this every day we were there without fail she loves it and the Grands were pretty impressed with how fearless she is with animals but who can help it when you have a huge dog at home nothing seems intimidating 

Grandpa helped Lola on the bike

 We also went to the park in their neighborhood almost every day too.  Lola loves being outside and playing she has become so independent that she doesn't want help sliding down the slide anymore

swinging running sliding she loves it all

We went to the mall as well it was so fun we took her to the play place there but she just wanted to escape so our trip was cut a little short.  We were so lucky to have been able to come and visit my Grandparents and my cousin Katie (which for some reason I have no pictures of but it was a wonderful time).  Thanks for letting us come spend a few days with you can't wait to see you soon!!!!

March 2013

 This is Lola's new puppy (she has an obsession with dogs)

we were having a snack and she was feeding the dog some of her treats and making it bark and kiss her  she is the silliest kid I love it so much

February fun!

We decided to give Lola a yummy treat of jello with mandarin oranges, and let her do everything herself.  It was very fun, and very messy!

And let the bath time begin

 

playing dress up with her dad

having a good time

Lola loves to play outside and was so excited to finally see grass outside

Lola is always super cute

We made vanilla cup cakes and Lola got to scrape out the bowl (always the favorite part for any kid) and just like always made a huge mess :)
